Lord Derby has announced that the responsibility of the decision not to prevent last Monday ' s meeting by force , rested not with Mr . Walpole ^ but with the Cabinet . We have reason to believe , however , that it is necessary to look still higher for the origin of the determination that force should not be used ; and that the unwavering loyalty of the people to the Throne has been recognized and rewarded by a generous confidence which was imposed upon and did not originate with the Ministry .

Linda, Says She Cannot Love Me, And What...

Linda , says she cannot love me , And what e ' er I say , Turns her head away . Neither do the stars above me , Twinkling as they glisten , To my praises listen . So shall Linda , though she slight me , Still for evermore delight me . Linda , when I praise her graces , Tells me that there are Others fairer far . So I , ' mid strange lands and faces , Find wherein I roam , Fairer spots than home . Yet shall home and Linda be 3 £ ver best beloved by me . \
